Non-Confidential Campus and Community-Based Resources

Campus Safety and Security

Campus Safety and Security is available to respond to any crisis 24/7, 365 days a year. To report an immediate issue, contact Campus Safety & Security directly at 425-388-9990, security@everettcc.edu, or Parks Student Union, Room 226. Campus Safety & Security is also able to provide you with an escort to and from your car, office, or classroom. If you prefer, a Security Officer can be in the area and watch from a distance to ensure that you safely arrive at your on-campus destination. 

Campus Security Officers are trained officers, however, they are not police officers. Reporting an issue to the Campus Safety & Security office does not mean that they will automatically report the matter to the local law enforcement. While true, if there is imminent harm to you (i.e. self-harm) or others (armed person) within the campus community, Campus Safety & Security may be required to report this to law enforcement. 

Title IX Coordinator

The Title IX Coordinator is available to provide campus support resources, interim measures, and to connect individuals with local resources. Examples of interim measures may include the issuance of a no contact directive between two Everett Community College members or working with faculty or staff to provide reasonable academic or employment accommodations. The Title IX Coordinator can also arrange for a member from community resource (such as Domestic Violence Services) to meet with you on campus in a space you are familiar and comfortable with. The same is true if you choose to file a report with local police; the Title IX Coordinator and/or Campus Safety & Security can arrange for a police officer to meet with you on campus to provide your report. The Title IX Coordinator can also talk with you about your reporting options. 

Advocates

Students and employees are welcome to have a support person with them when meeting with the Campus Safety & Security, the Title IX Coordinator or investigators, or another college official. Everett Community College recognizes that experiencing sexual misconduct or discrimination is both difficult and complex. Having someone you know and trust with you can help make a world of difference. Your advocate or support person may not speak on your behalf, but they can provide support, suggest breaks if and when needed, and aid in ensuring that your concerns are fully addressed. If you need help with identifying someone who can serve as your advocate or support person, please contact the Title IX Coordinator.
